Bentek Solar snares ETL listing, CSA certification for PV system circuit breaker recombiners

Bentek Solar has received ETL listing to UL 1741 and CSA 22.2 certification for its circuit breaker recombiners for commercial and utilty-scale PV solar power systems. The San Jose-based balance of systems design and manufacturing firm said it has shipped more than 100MW recombiner products to several North American customers.

“There are no fuses with these 100% circuit breaker recombiners, which provide maximum performance and safety with UL 489 breakers,” said John Buckley, head of sales of marketing at Bentek. “Not only is it a more convenient solution to maintain since there are no fuses to ever replace, but it also is a very cost-competitive alternative to fuses with an integrated load-break disconnect.”
